The effect of martensitic deformation on the two-way shape-memory effect (SME) of quasi-binary high-copper TiNi-TiCu alloys (with 25-40 at % Cu) is studied. The alloys are prepared by rapid quenching from the melt in an amorphous state in the form of ribbons 30-50 mu m in thickness. The alloys crystallize during isothermal annealing, the time of which is varied from 100 to 300 s, and during a single current pulse 10 ms in duration. The relatively low bending strains (1.5-3%) are shown to cause two-way SME in TiNiCu alloys; as the strain of martensite increases, the reversible strain in the martensitic transformation range increases markedly. An increase in the copper content is found to cause a substantial decrease in the value of two-way SME, which is related to the formation of the brittle TiCu phase. At the same time, a decrease in the heat treatment time causes an increase in the reversible strain, which reaches the maximum value (2.35%) for the alloy with 25 at % Cu subjected to high-rate electric pulse treatment.
